Heitor Villa-lobos: Complete Solo Piano Works, Vol. 3 / Marcelo Bratke
"...Villa-Lobos gained significant prestige in the Paris of the 1920s, the period of his boldest and most creative work, before returning to a more orderly approach in the 1930s. In 1928, when the publisher Max Eschig commissioned a few works for students of the celebrated professor and pianist Marguerite Long at the Paris Conservatory, Villa-Lobos wrote one of his most charming and most original compositions, Francette et PiĂ . He imagined a little Indian boy called PiĂ befriending a little French girl, Francette. There is a âbarbarianâ mood from the beginning, with syncopated jazz Ă la Revue Nègre bringing in French childrenâs songs such as Au Clair de la Lune or Marlbrough sâen va-t-en guerre, reflections of Brazilian themes, the Marseillaise, and many other references scored in miraculously straightforward language." - Quartz Records, (From the album liner notes.)
